Guess who's coming to The Netherlands tomorrow... in a bad mood... - Devil - 2010-11-12

It's Sinterklaas! (also known as Santa Claus in the rest of the world, thanks to Coca Cola...)

Last years arrival was all good 'n stuff...
 Some 2009 footage (in Dutch)

However... this year it's different... he's angry... because Coca Cola screwed up his real birthday (6th of December) in the rest of the world (24th of December)...

Coca Cola-beverage company founded in 19th Century-ish=Santa Claus? I fail to see this reasoning. Good job super assuming.

A movie about Santa Claus going on a killing spreed? Oh my god I cannot wait for English subs.

Movie sounds more awesome when I can understand what they're saying.

It's true.
The red/white old man figure of Santa Claus was propaganda by Coca-Cola.

So going to see this movie. Sinterklaas on his horse going over roofs at full speed while someone fires a gun at him = awesome. Sucks for the little kids though if their parents are idiots.

It reminds me of Assassins Creed somehow... xD (Note that the clothes of the Zwarte Pieten are the same of that time era Tongue).

Maybe Sinterklaas is also an Assassin! Big Grin
